A Quick Primer on the Inhumans, Marvel's Next TV Stars | Geek and Sundry
After teasing an Inhumans movie for a while, Marvel Studios has just announced a fascinating reconfiguration of plans. While plans for the movie are still up in the air, the group will be getting their very own TV show, with the first two episodes being shot and shown on IMAX, and the remainder of the story playing out as a mini-series on ABC.
If you're a fan of Marvel's movies and tv shows but haven't read the comics, then this is a great primer on the Inhumans.
The royal family is definitely an insteresting group. Black Bolt, the Attilans’ king, must remain silent at all times as his voice can level entire cities. Try not to infer any satirical comment in that. Their queen is Medusa, whose lush head of hair can lash out and attack enemies like an octopus’ tentacles. Medusa’s sister, Crystal, can control the four classic elements: fire, water, air, and earth. The rest of the court is filled out with the merman, Triton, and the centaur-ish brute, Gorgon, and Karnak, a martial arts master who is the only Inhuman to not have been exposed to the Mists. Their pet Lockjaw, a giant bulldog, can teleport over great distances with the aide of a tuning fork on his head. And of course, their primary antagonist is Black Bolt’s evil little brother, the scheming psychic Maximus the Mad.
